Sounds like our old friend Moonman. He used to rant on this forum about a year ago. He claimed to find a new metal that was never discovered before. One can only assume it is the same old made up stuff he blathered on about here. I like how they

Haha. It is most annoying that "It" has been published in I-Connect (pcb007) newswires. Makes me wonder how serious they are. No explanation, at least a hint what it is. Compare it to NASA who always tells you what "It" is when they break the news wi

And that's better because? I think the guy that thought this up has never been to a board shop or knows what is involved with plating. Why does he think it's the board shops that will disappear? Maybe they will simply build the board over the compon

I meant have the board shop build the boards. I'm not talking assmebly. With the Occam process it would be like waiting untill you have all the other parts then phoneing the board shop and then ordering your raw pcbs. The interconnects have to be

Well, Ray Rassmussen believes that "IT" may put China on it's ear. Not sure about any of you, but I never felt the need to splash water on my face whilst reading this white paper. Hate to see how he'd react to seeing a board going over a 500 degree

This is the last comment I will make on this subject. To me this occam process makes a whole lot more sense than lead-free. My whole life I made a living in soldering so I would hate to see it go, but we can�t ignore innovative new technology. Lead-

Our preference has been ENIG. We find that we achieve higher quality (visually) soldering for through hole and surface mount parts, with less handling issues than when we use white-tin, or immersion tin. We are about to do a test on some boards tha

Sounds like your board stop sensor is not working properly so it's not seeing the y-stop/board edge when the board enters the center or the machine. You could try taking the camera cube cover off, jog the camera over a board then move the board back

When you teach the "teach boardstop Y" make sure the camera is seeing the leading edge of the board and not too close to the rails. It should calculate the pre-stop position correctly. I assume you have thoroughly checked the sensor. Also check th
